valuable business calendar for 1883 is the
Columbia Bicycle Calendar and Stand, just
issued by the Pope Manufacturing Com
pany, of Boston, Mass. In this calendar

dar proper is in the form of pad, contain
ing 366 leavs, one for each day In the year,
to be torn off daily. The leaves are 5H by
\ inches, and a portion Of each leaf is left
tlank for memoranda, so arranged that the
memorandum blank for any coming day can
e turned to Immediately at any time. The
ad rests upon portable stand, which takes
but little more room than the pad itself,
ID when placed upon the desk or writing
the entire surface of the date leaf IL

possible to be overlooked.
